So I hit my knee in the middle of the night. Should I be worried?!
Question: So I hit my knee in the middle of the night!. Should I be worried!?
I leaped onto my bed last night and hit the left side of my left knee on a sharp corner of the bedpost in doing so!. There's a small cut on the knee and there appears to be some internal swelling!. If I lift my leg and almost fully extend it, I get some mild pain!. Attempting to bend the leg further doesn't hurt as much, but it takes some effort!. If I press the kneecap slightly above where I hit it, I get the greatest pain response!. Is this all just a result of the swelling from a bruise on/inside my knee, or could it be a sign of something more serious like a ligament injury!?Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
It sounds like a bruise, especially if you hit it straight on and didn't twist it, pull it, or fall!.
If it still hurts after a few days, see a doctor and have it x-rayed!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
